Description

91-93(+) points William Kelley (Wine Advocate): “The 2018 Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Estournelles St Jacques wafts from the glass with a fragrant bouquet of cherries, raspberries and peonies, complemented by bass notes of smoked meats and forest floor. On the palate, it’s medium to full-bodied, bright and lively, with fine cut and tension. Magnien observes that he routinely green harvests in this climat to control yields. (Feb 2020)”

91-93 points Jasper Morris, MW: “55 year old vines. Rich purple black. Charles feels that this is in fact more white wine soil, facing south but subjected to cool winds. He notes that you have to keep the crop down or you miss the flesh and it goes rustic. More power less finesse here, a tightly structured finish and very long. Tasted: November 2019.”

91-93 points Neal Martin (Vinous): “The 2018 Gevrey-Chambertin Estournelles Saint-Jacques 1er Cru comes from 0.33 hectares of 50-year-old vines. On the floral nose, incense and pressed iris flowers infuse sensual red fruit that turns “bluer” with aeration. The palate is very smooth and harmonious, with saturated tannins, well-judged acidity and a very cohesive, slightly powdery-textured finish that lingers long in the mouth. Superb. Drink: 2022-2036. (Jan 2020)”
